A roller coaster typically has two sets of wheels per car: guide wheels and friction wheels. Guide wheels are located on the sides of the track and help keep the car on course, while friction wheels are located underneath the car and provide stability and control. Each set of wheels can have multiple individual wheels, depending on the design and size of the roller coaster.
